Summary
Since the beginning, love and war have been intertwined. Both are inevitable, passion-fueled, desired, and hated. Both are irrational, both require courage and sacrifice.
But most of all, they both are destructive and are often downfall of man.
Ares, the god of war, and Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty and love, embody such paradox.
It is my own personal belief that they too embodied this incongruity just as so many others that would come and would fall to tragedy.
Guinevere and Lancelot.
Deirdre and Naoise.
Cleopatra and Mark Anthony.
Vishwamitra and Menaka.
Odysseus and Penelope.
Achilles and Patroclus.
And of course,
Helen and Paris.
It is also often said that love comes when least excepted, and least expected it was all those years ago for a girl who’s only dream was to devote her life to her work before a war would bring her and her family ten years worth of anguish and chaos but also kinship and love.
But I am ahead of myself now.

Summary
“Without you,” Clarke murmurs when Bellamy pulls away slightly to press their foreheads together, “I would have started a war.”
“I know. And do you know what I would have done when I walked into it?”
"What?”
“I would have helped you fight it,” Bellamy whispers. “But that's another life. In this one, we don't fight. We keep being us, and we do better. Someone wise told me that, and she was right.”
“If only she could take her own advice,” Clarke says, swallowing thickly.
Bellamy smiles at her. “She's got me for that.”

They all have to come together and do better in a world where it's so easy to do the opposite. Through peace or war, no one will come out on the other side the same.

How did it come to this?
Ultraman Ken hoped that, with Alien Empera defeated, there could at last be peace. Or at least that his life would be simpler. No such luck. With his co-commander and best friend Belial preparing to take charge of the new space garrison, a young prodigy Zoffy to guide, and the memories of everyone he’s lost still fresh in his heart, Ken finds an unexpected new purpose.Ultrawoman Marie has a problem: she’s too blasted good at her job. But it’s so easy to go numb when the lives you couldn’t save add up higher than you can count. After the dust of war settles, can she lift a broken society from its knees? As it turns out, the answer is yes—with a little help from the right people.
After Empera. Before Ultraman. These are the between-times. This is Afterwar. Rated T for violence and some disturbing imagery

Summary
Dave has never been so angry in his fucking life.
But Dave will never show it, he’s going to play it cool. He’s really good at that. While some people can peer through his façade, Dave will see to it that it says “Repressed asshole that played it off like a fucking Auguste Rodin sculpture” on his tombstone. Looking at this display makes Dave want to unsheathe his sword and immediately just drop onto it.
Fuck, he’s not being very cool is he?
(or: Dave doesn't understand trolls or their culture and is kind of an asshole about but is madly in love and trying his best despite being raised by a hateful asshole.)

Summary
It had been a whole year.
One fucking year since Jason went missing.
“I’d follow you into hell, Jay.”
Shun wouldn’t break that promise. Bruce could spend his time beating the petty criminals of Gotham. Hell, he could even replace Jason with some random brat. He didn’t care anymore. He’d find Jason. He’d find Jason if he had to burn all of Gotham to ash and he’d do it without the Batman.

Quirkless. Being without a quirk. A name for people with no quirk. Quiiiiirkless.
Is there a name for people who used to have quirks, but don’t anymore? Is there one for people who can’t use theirs? At what point do you cross over that line, if there even is one?Hanta wonders how many more times he has to think the word before it loses meaning, and how many times after that before it doesn't apply to him anymore. His left arm is gone. His right arm is useless. His leg is broken. He's a Pro Hero who can't use his Quirk.
Quirkless. /Basically/ quirkless.

Summary
After La Casa Madrigal fell and was rebuilt, by the whole town nonetheless, things went steadily back to normal. Whatever normal means in the Encanto is largely up for debate, but nevertheless, daily life continues its hustle and bustle.
This story doesn’t start with the Madrigals, though. Most of their story has already been told. No, this story starts with you. Normal, plain, and regular by the Encanto’s standards; but a gift in your own little way.
Your name is [Y/N], or [N/N] (whichever anyone prefers), and this is your first week in the Encanto.

Summary
Xiao.
He replayed the word over and over in his mind. It did not feel like his name, not yet.
Alatus no longer felt like his name either. If he were someone more capable of self reflection he would have realized long ago Alatus had long since ceased to be a name. Alatus was a command. He holds no memories of a time that name was called with affection. That name brought nothing, save for death and despair. Alatus is a warning, the last to be heard before life and dreams are ripped away.
Alternatively new jade bow lore got me in my feelings and is a perfect excuse to do a slowburn character exploration ZhongXiaoVen piece.
